I Love You - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
I LOVE YOU. Copyright, 1893, by T. B. Harms & Co. Words and Music by Andrew Mack. 
Larry, my darling, would I could speak my love! Speak, for there's none to hear us, none but the stars above. 
Wert thou a tree, a bird I'd be, and there I'd build my nest; Wert thou a rose, I would repose, like dew, upon thy breast. Wert thou the sea, the shore I'd be, for ever at thy side; In such a dream, wert thou the stream, then I would be the tide. Ah, if in the future we part, love, I'll be true; None shall hold place in my heart, love-none but you. Thro' all the years that may roll, love I'll be true; Molly Mavourneen, I love you! Larry, my darling, I love you! 
If thou wert mine, and I were thine, how happy I would be; Thou art mine own for ever, you're all in life to me. If stars above could speak my love, how brightly they would shine; If earth below, my love could show, 'twould be a heav'n divine. Ah, if in the future we part, love, etc.
